A better and safer kiteboard binding
The majority of kiteboard-related injuries occur in the lower body parts. A large part of these injuries is caused by torsion applied on the legs during a crash. In-depth user research has been done in order to understand the bio-mechanics and dynamic forces of kiteboarding. The outcome is a new binding that can prevent these forms of trauma and offers the athlete more control. The product received very positive feedback from the user tests.
